Unable to install PS CS3 in Windows 7 64bit

I have the 64bit version of Windows 7.   I, apparently, successfully installed PS but when I click on the icon to open it I get the opening screen, but no splash screen and that's it.  I finally get a message that PS is not responding.  When I "X" out of PS I get a screen saying that it will search for a solution and then close PS.   Nothing happens except that PS does close.  I've tried a repair installation of PS.  I have MS Win 7 64bit Professional installed, AMD Phenom II X Processor and 8GB of RAM, 2 terabyte hard drive.  Thanks.
I have searched for an answer but haven't found anything close to this.
I did run the Windows 7 upgrade advisor before installing Windows 7 (I previously had Windows XP Home) and the only problem the advisor detected was a potential problem with Roxio Creator 2009.  Obviously this is a clean installation of Windows 7 since it's not possible to do an in place upgrade from XP to Windows 7.  thanks.

I actually googled for an answer to the new message and found a link to repair the licensing problem.  The only problem now is that I have a message telling me that I have exceeded the number of activations available so that I have to deactivate PS on the old computer and then I can reactivate it on the new one.  Only problem is, of course, is that there is no old computer.  I useda Windows 7 disk to install the new OS on a brand new computer and no longer have the old one.  As far as I know the hard drive on the old one has been formatted and erased many times.  The computer shop that built my new computer takes the old one as a "trade in" and completely and securely erases everything on it!!  It never occurred to me to deactivate PS on it!  I guess I will be in touch with Adobe.  And probably go through their telephone maze from h***.  If not I apologize now.  What a mess!

  • Installing Photoshop CS3 on Windows 8

    How can i install Photoshop CS3 on Windows 8 - install does not complete - error message "Installer Database corrupt".  The Abobe help chat system is unable to help.
    Rebooting my computer and re-downloading the software from the Adobe website for another clean install made no difference.
    Is this a compatability problem and if so how can I fix it?

         Something else to try:

  • Unable to Install Photoshop CS5 on Windows 8

    I'm unable to install Photoshop CS5 on Windows 8.  A copy of the installation log is listed below.  The first time I tried installing, I had Norton 360 enabled, right-clicked the DVD-ROM drive and selected to execute the installer.  It failed at about 5%.  Then, I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and uninstalled Adobe AIR, disabled Norton 360, ran the Creative Suite Cleanup Tool, and then rebooted back into Safe Mode.  This time, I browsed the DVD-ROM drive, right-clicked on the set-up.exe file and selected Run As Administrator.  Same thing as before.  It failed at 5%.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks.

  • Unable to install Elements 12 on Windows 8.1

    When I try to install Elements 12 on Windows 8.1, the install fails.  It says it needs DirectPlay, but according to Microsoft, that has been depricated.  I'm caught in a vicious loop trying to get Elements 12 installed on my PC.  What's up with that? 

    Sandeep,

    It works, but there are known problems with installation and use so you should consult the Adobe support forums. If you're trying to install it on a new PC, just get the latest upgrade package from Adobe. You'll get A LOT more out of the latest version than you would CS3 since CS3 doesn't support the newer technology and lacks hardware acceleration.

    Hi I am unable to install itunes on my Windows 8 64 bit PC, can you help please

    Many thanks.
    the message I get says unable to remove old version of itunes
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit.

    Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit. I tried it in
    safe mode and it starts to install but get an error there as well.
    What do I do?

    So when you put the disk in it won't run correctly? When the disk is inserted you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1 to install and the other to see what is on the disk. Choose to explore or open the disk. Go to the CS4 folder where the photoshop .exe file is (that will run the setup), right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin and it should start. See if it will install. If not then read below.
    I am not sure how far you got in the install before so chances are you will have to run the CS4 cleanup utility. 2 levels to run at but don't use 1 or 2 just type in the number 3.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
    You may need to run the windows installer cleanup utility too
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Before you try to reinstall the software ensure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is remove it. It has caused issues in the past with vista and CS4 installs.
    Also turn off windows Defender and any anti-virus software. You can keep UAC on in Windows 7.
    During the CS4 install at 90 percent it will almost stop and may take 5 to 10 mins to finish. This is normal. What a pain huh......
    After install is finished, reboot
    After reboot, go to the CS4 64 bit or 32 bit icon (depends on 32 or 64 bit Windows 7) in start area, right click on CS4 64 bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit) and choose properties, compatibility tab and then check run as Admin at the bottom area. Hit apply, ok to close out.
    Now start CS4 and run the updater.

  • Failed to install Photoshop CS3 in Windows Vista SP1

    Hi there, I dunno why I cannot install Photoshop CS3 after upgrading my OS to Vista SP1. I have searched for lots of "solution" in Google but they seem to be useless and I am still unable to install PS in my computer.
    Does anyone here has the above situation and would you mind to tell me how to solve this problem?
    Thanks a lot.

  • I am trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows 8 it says "The Installer Database is corrupt"

    The error is here:
    Dreamweaver CS3 on my new Windows 8 PC
    This will most likely never work. CS3 wasn't even fit for Win 7. Delete the caps.db in the respective caps folder (info here) and then take the usual steps of running as admin, turning off UAC and security tools and possibly using compatibility modes, but as I said, be prepared that this may be futile and you spend a Sunday afternoon without achieving anything...
